Missing the Good Parts, Hating the Bad Parts

-
I’ve been in a funk for the last 2 days. I miss the good parts of Gavin and I hate myself for falling for him b/c of all the bad parts.  Sometimes I’m thankful for the fun times we had and other times I wish we’d never met. I really, really need him to leave ASAP.  His truck is still for sale, so I’m hoping he’s out of here soon. He told Damien the 16th when they initially discussed it. I don’t know now…I don’t know if he has to wait until it sells. If that’s the case, he may never leave…sigh. I tried to convince Gwyn to buy it.
Every time someone sees him, they tell me. Damien sees him all the time b/c he buys weed from him. Gwyn saw him at Waimea today on the way home this morning. Russell saw him last week near our house. I see him a lot too when I’m driving. I’m tired of Gavin sightings. I’m tired of occupying the same small strip of land with him.
He called me from a pay phone this morning.  I answered it b/c I thought it was a landline and might have been Chloe’s school. Hearing his voice, hit me like a freaking ton of bricks.  I’d already been thinking about him. He has the uncanny ability to sense that, always has. I didn’t mean to be thinking about him. I don’t want to think about him, I just was. Anyway, I answered and heard his voice and went into defensive mode.  I immediately said “I can’t talk, I’m at work.”. He asked me to call him later so we could talk about something. I assume it’s about his stuff still at my house, which I’m honestly not overly inclined to return in a timely fashion at the moment because Gwyn is still using his dresser and b/c after all the money I put into him and never got back, I’d just let it go if I were him. I simply replied “maybe…” and hung up.  I have no intentions of calling him back.  It’s been 2 months, but I still don’t want to talk to him.

Online Dating Duds

-
 After the Return of Sawyer debacle I went back to online dating and discovered a string of totally unsuitable and unappetizing guys but they gave me some good laughs. There was a friend of Peabody’s who remembered meeting me but I didn’t remember meeting him.   He was super conservative and a Trump lover but I went out with him out of spite just hoping it would get back around to Peabody.   We had a very unremarkable date in the small town I live in – again hoping someone would see me and get back to Peabody (I’m nothing if not a little petty).   We talked and he gave me a sob story about having a legit crazy ex-wife and wanted a lot of details about Peabody.   Gossip travels fast in this small town I suppose.   We kissed a little at the end of the night and it wasn’t bad but it also wasn’t anything to want to take your pants off about.   Then there was the vet, as in veterinarian, who was so old fashioned he didn’t have a cell phone – at least that’s what he told me.   But he als

Five months later

Here we are amost five months later. Jules is happily married and coping with Russell leaving the island. Gywn is bursting with pregnancy - shes having a boy! -and counting down the days till her hubby comes home. And Miranda, well Miranda is...happy. As strange of an emotion as she can imagine, Miranda is happy. Peabody has pulled out all the stops and completely committed himself to her. It's about damn time lol. Maybe fairy tales can cone true after all? Fate has taught Miranda to be cautious but she can't help feeling cautiously optimistic at the moment.

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

-
It's another day in the neighborhood, won't you please be my neighbor? Ok, I date myself but I loved Mr. Rogers. So my new hood is rolling along nicely...I came home today to my new dog greeting me at my car, kids on my porch, and Gavin getting up to get me a glass of wine as I walked into the door. Then, the man did homework with my daughter. Homework is my least favorite time of the day and he totally rocked it. It was hilarious listening to him with her, but super cute too. I'll say it again...it doesn't suck to be me right now. I had to give Gavin some tough love tonight though and admittedly he took it better than expected. He continues to whine about what a horrible gf the gf is...I finally laid it out. I told him that I thought 99.9% of his current problems could in fact be traced back to her, that she's a toxic human being, etc, etc. (He did kind of ask...) I explained that I can actually remove myself and say this in an objective manner (hence why I'
